ISRAMCO, INC. Reports First Quarter Results

HOUSTON, May 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ISRAMCO, INC. (Nasdaq: ISRL) reported today that first quarter 2009 revenues were $7,007,000, compared to $7,730,000 in the first quarter of 2008, a decrease of approximately 0.3%. The largest component of revenue in the first quarter of 2009 were oil and gas sales, which decreased by approximately 12% when compared to same period of 2008 due to lower natural gas, oil and natural gas liquids commodity prices. This decrease was partially offset by increases in sales volumes of natural gas, oil and natural gas liquids resulting from the oil and gas properties purchased by the Company on March 27, 2008.

The Company reported a net income of $1,790,000 or $0.66 per share for the first quarter 2009 compared to net loss of ($7,646,000) or ($2.81) per share for the same period in 2008. This increase was primarily due to the impact of derivatives and increases in sales volumes of natural gas, oil and natural gas liquids resulting from the March 2008 acquisition of oil and gas interests and was partially offset by sustained lower natural gas, oil and natural gas liquids sales revenues due to lower prices, higher lease operating expenses, higher depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses and higher interest expense due to the above referenced acquisition.

There are currently 2,717,691 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
